#1: With microscopic hair comparison, one cannot determine from the notes that the examination was conducted in an appropriate manner.

#2: Documentation is poor. The notes are not dated, are in pencil and not ink and abbreviations are used that are difficult to interpret. The technician's notes do not document the recovery of hair from the Q items. Pubic hairs from the Q7 bed sheet were recovered that are different from the victim's and the suspect's pubic hair, but these

were not reported. Head hairs from Q9 bed spread and Q12 pillowcase were recovered that are different from the

victim's and the suspect's pubic hair, but these were not reported.
